Chapter 10
Previously :
''Who was this guy?'' asked Skye from behind her mother.
May turned around and looked at her daughter. There was fear in her eyes.
''Herry McQuid.'' may answered.
''And who are Herry McQuid and Thomas Bradly?'' Skye asked even more feared.
May didn't know what to say so she just said ''The people I was hoping you would never have to know about.''
Ward and Agent 33 were removed from the Playground to some other secret base.
May was in the kitchen, watching Herry on one of the tablets. He was being kept in the basement. He was sitting on the bed smiling like an idiot. He was a psychopath. And how could he be alive if she saw him die. She was there when they buried him.
She heard a sound at the door and knew who it was immediately. Skye and Coulson.
''I'm not going to answer any more questions. I all ready told you that you don't have to know any more that you all ready know.'' said May.
''Ow come on mom!'' complained Skye ''Please tell us.''
Coulson stepped closer to May and set on the chair next to her. He took away her tablet and put it on the other end of the table. She didn't look at him. He took one of her hands in his and said ''Please Melinda. Maybe we don't have to know but we want to know. Maybe we can help.'' his voice was calm and a little bit more quiet than usually.
''No one can help.'' she said and her eyes stayed on the table.
''How do you know that?'' asked Skye and set on the chair in front off her.
May finally looked up and her eyes met Skyes ''Cause many powerful people tried but they all failed. Most of them ended up dead.'' she said and Skyes eyes went wide.
''What happened?'' asked Skye and Coulson at the same time.
May looked from one to the other and realized she had no other chance than to tell.
''It all started 32 years ago...''
32 Years Ago :
It was 9 o'clock on a Friday night. May and Jiaying were teenagers. 15 years old. They were at Jiayings place with one Danny. May, Jiaying and Danny were best friend since first grade. They were watching some scary movie.
''Can we watch something else?'' asked Jiaying who was hiding behind a pillow.
May turned to her ''Come on. It'll be over soon. It's only 20 minutes left.''
''I agree with Jiaying.I want to watch something else.'' said Danny.
May looked from one to the other and rolled her eyes at them. She turned off the movie and turn back to them ''So what do you want to watch then?'' she asked.
''I don't know,'' said Jiaying ''maybe a comedy?''
''What do you go-'' May was cut off by some noise coming from the other room.
May jumped up. She was taking Material Arts since she was 5.
''What was that?'' cried Jiaying.
Danny looked at her ''Maybe it's your parents...?''
''My parent won't be home until Tuesday!''
''Or it's your cat.'' he said.
''I don't have a cat!'' now Jiaying was hiding behind him.
Another noise came from the room and than there were footsteps.
''That's definitely not a cat.'' murmured May and took scissors in her hand for protection and than turned to Danny and Jiaying ''I'm going to go look at what's going on in there, you two stay here.''
''I'm coming with you.'' told her Danny.
Jiaying took her hand ''And I'm not staying in here alone.''
''Than stay behind me.'' ordered May before she slowly opened the door.
The hallway was as they left it. Empty. And the door to the other room were closed. May looked at Danny and Jiaying and than turned the door knob and opened the door. Se sneaked one of her hands in and turned the lighted on while her other hand still had scissors in it.
She pushed the door open and was surprised at what she saw. Nothing. The room was empty. Jiayings parents were renovating it so there was fresh paint on the walls. But nothing else.
They stepped into the room and she held the scissors tight in her hand. Everything was quiet until the beeping sound was heard. May turned around and looked at the floor from where the beeping was coming.
''IT'S A BOMB!'' she yelled and pushed Jiaying and Danny out off the room, but it was too late for her to get out 'cause the bomb exploded. The windows had blown up and May fell out off the house and on the grass outside.
She groaned at the pain off her fall. Jiaying a d Danny were beside her in en instant, picking her up.
When she stood up on her legs she heard someone laughing behind her and when she turned around she saw Herry McQuid, her fathers closest friend.
''Hahaha. So you're finally outside.'' he said.
''What do you want Herry?'' May asked coldly, with a death glare in her eyes.
''What do I want?'' he laughed again ''I want her powers.'' he pointed at Jiaying.
May stepped in front of her ''Over my dead body.'' and that was it. He put his hand in front of him and she flew a few meters away. May spit blood out off her mouth and stood up.
Herry wasn't looking at her anymore. He turned all of his attention to Jiaying. He was walking towards her and May wasn't going to let him hurt her so she started running towards him and knocked him down on the floor.
Danny ordered Jiaying to go inside and call for help and she ran in the house.
With in seconds May was up in the air. She was choking, she couldn't breathe. Her hands flew to her throat. Harry was standing now and he was going to kill her if something didn't happen. Danny knocked him down like May did and she fell on the floor taking beep breathes. Danny was in her place now and when she turned to him he looked at her with no regret in his eyes.
She heard a crack and Dannys eyes went empty and he fell on the floor next to her.
May cried out and crawled to him, checking his pulse, but...there was non. With tears running down her cheeks she turned to Herry.
''You killed him!' she yelled and her eyes turned live green...
Present Time :
''What happened next?'' asked Skye with tears running down her cheeks at the story.
May was crying to ''There's something I want you two to know first.'' she said. She didn't mention the green eyes 'cause they had to know this first.
''What is it?'' asked Coulson.
Mays head turned to him and, just like then, her eyes were live green. He and Skye just stared at her when she lifted her hand towards the tablet and there was a rear green mist around her hand and one around the tablet.
The tablet slowly went up, it flew across the table and landed on it.
''What the hell was that?'' Skye raised her voice.
May looked up at her ''Magic.'' she said.
''Well that explains about nothing.'' said Skye ''Yous said you weren't inhuman.''
''And I'm not.'' May said.
Coulson turned to her ''May what's going on?'' he asked.
''It happened hundreds off years ago.'' May started ''There were two best friends Hanna and Layla. Hanna was an orphan and her best friends parents took her in. She was the only human that knew about the inhumans. Layla was the daughter off the inhuman king. He had the most powerful powers. He could do anything. He was hurt badly during the attack and knew he was going to die, but didn't want his daughter to be the next queen, since her mother died when she was very young. He didn't want anyone to be the queen or the king 'cause it wasn't safe for inhumans to have their own rulers. They were too exposed. So he ordered them to go and blend in with the humans. And they did. Before he died he gave Hanna this magic, so she could protect Layla. When he died, Hanna became some kind off a guardian for Layla, until she died many years later. Layla lived her life until she died to.''
Skye and Couslon didn't know what to say at the story.
''The powers went on and on in the family. Only the first born child got them I don't know why. But that's how it is. So i that way they came to me.'' May told them.
''So I have this powers to?'' Skye asked ''Cause I don't want them. I want to be normal.''
May smiled at her daughter ''No Skye, you don't. When I was young I drank some kind off a potion so you wouldn't have them, similar to the one you drank get rid of your powers. I didn't want you to be forced into this, 'cause you couldn't give them away but you can get them.''
''Thanks, but I don't want them.'' Skye said.
''But May, you're not the first born child.'' said Coulson who had been quiet for a long time now.
''No. Charles didn't want them and gave them to me.'' May said.
Skye was very confused now ''Who's Charles?''
May turned to her ''He was my brother. You can't get rid of the powers but you can give them to your sibling if they want them. I did him a favor and took them.''
''What happened to him?'' asked Skye.
''That's a story for some other time, but first we have to end this one.'' said May.
32 Years Ago :
Mays eyes turned live green. Suddenly a bubble of live green color started to spread around her and when it touched Herry he fell to the floor unconscious. May turned back to Danny ''Please Danny. Please, please come back. Please...'' No matter how much she begged him to come back...he didn't. It was too late. He was gone.
Help came soon and they took Herry and helped the girls. Three days later it was Dannys funeral. Even thought he died protecting May, his parent never blamed her for his death, but she did. And after some time that changed...
